Gnome itself is actually not bad. It has a full screen menu and arrangeable application icons and folders, but I cannot group them the way I want, let alone resize them.
I don’t think resizing is an option, but isn’t it possible to drag one app’s icon on top of another app’s icon to create a group?
Now there’s a meme I haven’t seen in a while.
And where did you find that they will do that?
You tell me how it will result in it happening. Who even has the power to force people to learn Rust?
Then just not use it? You could even ask for a refund, I’m sure they’ll give it to you.
That person in the audience was really grinding my gears. Just let the folks you’re talking to answer you; no need to keep going on your diatribe when it’s based on a false assumption and waste the whole room’s time.
This sounds exactly like the type of nontechnical nonsense they’re complaining about: attacking a strawman (“they’re trying to prevent people from refactoring C code and making them rewrite everything in the current fancy language”) even after explicitly calling out that that was not going to happen (“and to reiterate, no one is trying force anyone else to learn Rust nor prevent refactorings of C code”).
It’s also not clear how long they’d be able to keep that up anyway, given… https://techcrunch.com/2024/08/28/brave-lays-off-27-employees/
Desktop web apps are being looked at though, so there’s that!
Great to hear! I’ve never used Redox either, so no idea how well that works too.
I’m very curious how buggy it’s going to be. (Obviously very during alpha, but I’m talking release.) They seem to be betting big on customisability, and a myriad of different setups is like a fly trap for bugs, in my experience.
But at the same time, a modern language like Rust provides lots of help to prevent a bunch of them, and they might be very talented programmers, so who knows!
They’ve committed to not changing any displayed text (“strings”), so that translators have time to translate everything.
Luckily Gecko still exists. And who knows, maybe Servo will make it one day (but the odds are stacked against both them and Ladybird anyway).
decide on the word “may” vs “will”
I assume they went with way land as a compromise.
I’m loving the immutable revolution in Linux land.
I think Vanilla OS might then be what you’re looking for. They’ve built up their immutable OS on several layers, and while most people will want the full desktop OS, if you want a very small base, maybe their Pico image is what you’re looking for? You should even be able to build on top of it to create your own, if you need to.
One extra Norwegian user in Statcounter’s biased and unrepresentative dataset started to use Linux, probably.
You might want to reconsider PIA anyway: https://restoreprivacy.com/kape-technologies-owns-expressvpn-cyberghost-pia-zenmate-vpn-review-sites/
Especially if it’s just another alpha release. They could have 20 more of those, for all I know.
